Displays a scrollbar with 'thumb' in curses-based vim (works in terminal).
Uses the 'sign' feature of vim to display a scrollbar on the left-hand side.
Starts out enabled when sourced, assuming you always want to see the scrollbar.
If you'd like to default to starting unsourced, add this to your .vimrc:
" Prevents loading by telling the plugin it's already loaded. You'll have
" to :call ToggleScrollbar()<CR> if you want to load it manually.
let g:loaded_scrollbar=1
Default settings. These can be overridden by putting these in your .vimrc:
" Default characters to use in the scrollbar.
let g:scrollbar_thumb='#'
let g:scrollbar_clear='|'
" Color settings.
highlight Scrollbar_Clear ctermfg=green ctermbg=black guifg=green guibg=black cterm=none
highlight Scrollbar_Thumb ctermfg=darkgreen ctermbg=darkgreen guifg=darkgreen guibg=darkgreen cterm=reverse
Default mapping to toggle the scrollbar on/off is <leader>sb. If you're new to
vim, that means \sb (press those keys in that order). You can change this by
adding this line to your .vimrc and editing the mapping.
map <leader>sb :call ToggleScrollbar()<cr>
